>> well, one of the things, and let's use ronald reagan as an example. ronald reagan stood for principles that conservatives have long believed in. but he believed in the country. he believed in solving problems. he believed in government. even though he would say that in terms of the carter presidency, the way he saw it, you know, the government was the problem, the next sentence after in his famous remark were that, "but, you know, let's make it clear. we're not against government. this is self-government. this is america. it's us." and he believed that. today, you see so many people in congress who really see government as the enemy, who are unwilling to come together to do even the most basic things like pay our bills. and you can't survive that way. so, the intellectual basis of conservatism seems to have disappeared. the idea that you would, you know, go to war or that you would create a program or whatever else, and not pay for it, was the most anti-conservative thing you could imagine. >> are there any reasons to be against big government? >> oh,

i thought ronald reagan had a fairly successful second term and bill clinton's was marred by his own personal issues. second trerms difficult. w. had a difficult time. one of the things i think they underestimate at the white house and the treasury is the idea of doing tax reform. when you both were probably in preschool, i was covering the '85, '86, tax reform act, and to call it heavy lifting is an understatement. it took a savvy, smart treasury secretary, jim baker, working with capitol hill and a supportive president, and democrats and republicans. i don't see any of those ingredients today to do tax reform in 2013, 2014. >> especially if the president is going to have a new treasury secretary. itim geithner, this has sort of been his-- tim geithner wanted to be behind tax reform, wanted to be the force behind corporate tax reform. that might speak to tim geithner staying on a little long fer they think they can get something done in the first six months. >> why is anything different now? why is anything different in the second term? >> good point. >> i'll turn the hosting to you
